| Commentary | In the foreground, don Quixote drinking through a cane hold by the innkeeper; also doña Tolosa, doña Molinera and the swineherd; accurate to Cervantes text: "llegó a caso a la venta un castrador de puercos, y así como llegó, sonó un silbato de cañas" (2:1).
In the background, don Quixote's first sally at dawn. Bad drawing and simple engraving. |
| Notes | 1 – Same wooden block first cut for Barcelona: Juan Jolis, 1755, copied after Madrid: Antonio Sanz, 1735, badly copied after Diego de Obregón’s illustration (Madrid: Andrés García de la Iglesia, 1674); the swineherd and don Quixote's first sally did not appear in Obregon's plate. |
